    Satisfactory

    Student is able to analyse simple noise and particle modelling cases both qualitatively and quantitatively. Student needs extra support to be able to complete given tasks. Exercises have been done, but results might be slightly erroneous or conclusions are incomplete. Student might have trouble following given deadlines.

    Good

    Student is able to use correct terminology and presents justified qualitative and quantitative analysis. Exercises are done completely, and results and analysis are correct. Results are at least briefly commented. Student doesn't fully understand the meaning or limitations of simulations.

    Excellent

    Student shows the ability to do versatile qualitative and quantitative analysis. Student has a realistic knowledge of the limitations of the theoretical framework. Reports are comprehensive and well-structured. Student is able to clearly show his or her own conclusions related to the results, applications and legislation.
